The Spiritual Danger of Doing Good was an amazing, resourceful book. I came at reading this book from a social worker's perspective. This book is a must for any social worker. As an MSW student, I found this book exceptionally useful.
Peter Greer uses real life examples to talk about how people who choose to work in ministry can end up forgetting what is important. Did you know that 1 in 3 Biblical prophets who did amazing things ended up doing bad things further on in their life. An example would be David. David was a man after God's own heart but later in his life he chose to take another man's wife for himself. This can very easily happen to any Christian worker.
This book takes those Biblical facts into consideration. Peter looked at these stunning statistics and chose to write a book to help safeguard those who want to do good. The Spiritual Danger of Doing Good has tons of tips to make sure that you - as a Christian who wants to do good - don't fall into the traps that so many others fall into. This is a book that should definitely be on the shelf of any Christian social worker!
